We are Proudly Accredited by the IPHM - International Practitioners of Holistic Medicine

At the CBD Healing Bar, we are honoured to be recognised on the International Practitioners of Holistic Medicine (IPHM) register as Executive Practitioners, with our founder and leading specialist — Ande Petrou (MCMA) (IPHM)— listed as an accredited practitioner. This is not just a badge… it’s a globally trusted symbol of professionalism, ethics, and excellence in holistic healing and natural therapies.

What Is IPHM?

The International Practitioners of Holistic Medicine (IPHM) is one of the world’s leading independent accreditation boards for holistic therapists, complementary practitioners, healers, and training providers. Established in 2005, IPHM exists to raise professional standards, promote ethical practice, and give clients confidence when choosing holistic care — worldwide.

Accreditation with IPHM means a practitioner has been independently reviewed and approved, meeting high standards of professional conduct, training, and integrity. It shows clients, peers, insurers, and the wider industry that your skills and services are delivered with competence, care, and credibility.

Being part of IPHM also connects practitioners to a global directory and a thriving international community — increasing visibility and trust for those seeking trusted, ethical holistic care.

Why IPHM Accreditation Matters — Especially in CBD & Holistic Wellness

The holistic, alternative, and natural therapies industry is rich with passion and purpose — but because it is not regulated in the same way as conventional medical professions, trust and professional standards become critically important. That’s where IPHM steps in:

• Independent validation of qualifications, ethics, and practice standards

• A globally recognised trustmark that clients recognise and respect

• Greater confidence for potential clients choosing your services

• Increased professional integrity within the wellness community

F

or our CBD Healing Bar, this accreditation is especially meaningful. We’re proud to be the first and only recognised CBD specialist accredited by IPHM in the UK and Europe — a distinction that reflects both our expertise and our commitment to delivering professional, safe, and effective CBD therapies and treatments.
